What's new in version 2.3

Some users have reported picking up mains hum (the tuner displays a constant pitch - which can be different according to location and environment) - this is a (unintended - sorry!) consequence of extending the range and sensitivity of the tuner. Rather than undoing the changes above which give far greater tracking and accuracy we have added a dedicated mains hum filter in Tuner/Advanced settings. This setting will be on by default - if however, you still experience problems we recommend switching this option off and enabling the normal noise filter prior to tuning. By request we have reinstated a method to edit Concert A and Transpose from the Main page - do a "long press" on the [TRANS] or [CONCERT A] buttons to edit. Added "Personalize/Show Fullscreen Button Icon". For those who thought the arrow icon over the strobe was ugly. You can now switch it off - the button will still work! Many other minor bug fixes and general improvements.
